The fight-or-flight response, also known as the acute stress response, refers to a physiological reaction that occurs in the presence of something that is terrifying, either mentally or physically. The response is triggered by the release of hormones that prepare your body to either stay and deal with a threat or to run away to safety.
The term 'fight-or-flight' represents the choices that our ancient ancestors had when faced with a danger in their environment. They could either fight or flee. In either case, the physiological and psychological response to stress prepares the body to react to the danger.

As human
beings we are envisioning of good life and that we always are looking forward
of the goals to attain the good life we are dreaming of. But there comes the
best enemy of all, our brains. The question is how to tap that full potential
of our brains to achieve such goals? After attending and listening motivational
talks, there were common things I have come up with how to unleash that unlimited
potential of our brains to be successful. First, you must be planning ahead and
write down on a piece of paper may it be a long-term or short-term goal; you
need to make a visible plan that will keep you reminded each day in order for
you to keep on track. Next, do not make that plan just a plan work for it and
make it happen. List steps on how to start your plans. Most importantly, change
your mindset and make it creative. Mostly, the once that hinders our achievements
is our brain. We often think of our limits instead of thinking how far we can
go. Just as what Albert Einstein said, “Imagination is everything. It is the
preview of life’s coming attractions.” So don’t limit your brain and be
creative in facing circumstances to unlock your goals.
1. If you are having a hard time trying to do something, ask others for help.
2. Have a sleep schedule, and a schedule for the next day.
3. Organize your work. If you organize your work, you will know where everything is at so you won't stress about it and you can work at your best ability.
These lines are lines of longitude. (Think: <u>long</u>itude)
Hope this helps!
